Bu çalışmada, iş bölümünün tarihsel gelişimi ve kapitalizmin farklı aşamalarında emek süreçleri ve vasıfsızlaşma tartışması sosyolojik ve ekonomik boyutları ile birlikte Adam Smith'in ve Durkheim'ın klasik eserlerinden başlanarak ele alınmaktadır. Taylorizm ve Fordizm ile birlikte işlerin daha analitik hale getirilmesi ve emek süreçlerinin makineleşmesi, işçilerin becerilerinin azalmasına yol açmıştır. Platform kapitalizminin ortaya çıkışıyla birlikte, yeni iş modelleri ve dijital platformlar, üretim, bölüşüm, mübadele ve tüketim süreçlerini yeniden şekillendirmektedir. Bu bağlamda, platform kapitalizminin etkisiyle vasıfsızlaştırma tartışmasının nasıl dönüşebileceği ve vasıfsızlaşan piyasa fikri ile birlikte platform kapitalizminin piyasa ve liberal birey fikrine olan etkileri üzerinden tartışılmıştır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

vasıfsızlaştırma, işbölümü, platform kapitalizmi, üretim biçimi, piyasa yapısı, liberal birey

Deskilling Beyond Labor: Platform Capitalism and Transformation of Market

Öz

This study explores the historical evolution of the division of labor, focusing on the labor processes and deskilling debates across different phases of capitalism. Beginning with the classical works of Adam Smith and Émile Durkheim, it delves into both sociological and economic dimensions. The rise of Taylorism and Fordism, marked by the increased analyticity of tasks and the mechanization of labor, contributed to a significant decline in workers' skills. In the era of platform capitalism, new business models and digital platforms are transforming production, distribution, exchange, and consumption processes. This study explores how the concept of deskilling may adapt to these shifts, while also considering the impact of platform capitalism on market structures and the notion of the liberal individual.
